MORE Pictures!

I'm guessing this roadwork was done in Gotham, and that somebody was looking for Batman to save the day. How this would be more visible than a sign up in the sky, I'm not sure. And while we're on the subject, what do they do when they need Batman and the night sky is not cloudy? Or what happens if they need him during the daytime?
Comic book writers. Their stuff is as full of plotholes as Swiss cheese.

Refrigerators... no longer just stainless steel - they now come in carbonite!! Order now, and get the exclusive Jabba Snack Dish for free!

I am still laughing hysterically over this one, and it's the third or fourth time I've looked at it! Poop on their cats... lol.

I would dub this a hilarious case of 'following the letter of the law, not the spirit'. However, the bathroom was cleaned very well, I must say. The paper flag and the note of, "WELCOME TO AMERICA - enjoy your stay!" are especially nice touches. Harry Potter on the toilet seals it. Lol.

Couch art. Now, that is a new concept. I have written on couches myself, but never to this extent. This is actually some seriously good art. How on earth was it drawn? I don't think you can get that kind of precision with just your finger.

Even so... that is a really good Gandalf. It's just amazing how it could be managed on that kind of material. The injuction on the seat cushion takes the cake, though. "You shall not sit." That meme is up there with, "One does not simply..." Everyone knows of it (or should) by now.

That would be something awesome to try sometime. I can just picture the reactions of the other people in the store... or the headlines in the paper the next morning, lol.

Now this is one piece of fandom merchandise I do not require. However, it is very clever and seems to be quite well-crafted. It's amazing the things you can get with a Middle-earth theme to them nowadays... which I am not complaining about at all!

I'm fairly sure this wins an award for the most awesome nursery of all time. Just sayin'.

S'mores. WIN.

I've never even heard of or seen 'pppp' in musical notation before! Gah! And how can you do a tremolo with only one note? I'm assuming this is not for piano... Even so, what do you call 'pppp'? 'p' is piano, since that's Italian for 'softly' or 'quietly', and 'pp' is pianissimo, and 'ppp' is pianississimo, or something like that, so does that meant that 'pppp' is pianissississimo?

Rafting on the Nantahala, 2010. I love how the rest of them are screaming their heads off.

I rode the Wild Eagle at Dollywood! Twice! And I have the T-shirt to prove it!

"There are some things it is better to begin rather than to refuse, even though the ending be dark."

- Aragorn, The Two Towers, p. 430

Rainbow Falls, Great Smoky Mountains

"I had forgotten that," said Eomer. "It is hard to be sure of anything among so many marvels. The world is all grown strange. Elf and Dwarf in company walk in our daily fields; and folk speak with the Lady of the Wood and yet live; and the Sword comes back to war that was broken in the long ages ere the fathers of our fathers rode into the Mark! How shall a man judge what to do in such times?"

"As he has ever judged," said Aragorn. "Good and ill have not changed since yesteryear; nor are they one thing among Elves and Dwarves and another among Men. It is a man's part to discern them, as much in the Golden Wood as in his own house."

- The Two Towers, p.427-428

Mittens! This is one of my brother's cats. Of course, any cat with white paws MUST be named Mittens.

"Do we walk in legends or on the green earth in the daylight?"

"A man may do both," said Aragorn. "For not we but those who will come after will make the legends of our time. The green earth, say you? That is a mighty matter of legend, though you tread it under the light of day!"

- The Two Towers, p. 424

LEGO Loki of Asgard is burdened with a glorious purpose... to decorate my keychain.

"...I will not trouble you now. If ever beyond hope you return to the lands ofy the living and we re-tell our tales, sitting by a wall in the sun, laughing at old grief, you shall tell me then. Until that time, or some other time beyond the vision of the Seeing-stones of Numenor, farewell!"

- Faramir, The Two Towers, p. 678

NASA Pathfinder. What? It's awesome.

Bofur is quite possibly the most adorable LEGO of all time. Just look at that smile!
